On just Sam’s part or all around? Seems like there might be quite a lot of it.
Sam gives me a manipulative vibe but the way he was booted with knives out was also pretty gross. No clue what else was going on behind the scenes.
Edit: if the people who booted him were really doing it in the name of safety paranoia, that doesn’t mean it wasn’t Machiavellian. The motive can be whatever but conspiring to boot someone like that is still a knife in the back.
I have interacted with him a few times and when he decides to help, he will help you all the way with an almost maniacal focus and drive. For what it's worth I have never heard bad things about him from individual interactions.
